View Poll Results: Which Conservative Talk Show Host do you hate the most?

Re: Which Conservative Talk Show Host do you hate the most?

I used to like Sean Hannity a lot. Being from the south, where he got his radio start, I used to listen to him all the time locally. But seems that when he hit it big and started becoming a household name, his programs changed. He's an ass now. He never lets anyone finish a thought or statement if he doesn't agree with it, just interrupts and acts childish. But if it's someone he agrees with, he will give them all the time in the world. Which ... it's his radio show or tv show, so he can do what he wants, it just turned me off and i quit listening to him.

Re: Which Conservative Talk Show Host do you hate the most?

What I really dislike about all the conservative talk shows Iíve listened to is...

When someone calls in and praises the host, agrees with him/her, etc...

I want to hear discussion, not fawning praise...

For the most part, that hardly ever happens.

Talk shows have an incredible amount of control over what callers get on the air. The shows want callers to speak only about the topic for discussion on hand and the screeners choose which people who agree or disagree with the host get on the air to talk. Naturally, this means the show can manipulate how the discussion goes. In fact, I know of only two talk shows on the same station that doesn't do this and will allow anyone to get on the air and talk about whatever they want with the hosts.

Mark Levin...I can't stand his whinny voice not to mention how it tends to go up and octave when he goes on one of his rants. It's so annoying. And his arrogance! He may have a keen knowledge on history where politics is concerned, but he tends to shove his views down people's throats especially once he learns the caller is a liberal. It doesn't matter if the caller is just as knowledgeable as he is or not. He totally ignores them and goes out of his way to try to embarrass - no - humiliate them. (Of course, Rush, Hannity and a few of the other talking heads do it, too, but Levin is the worse, IMO!)

Here are some examples of the drive-by history provided by people like Glenn Beck:
